Dr Bahu was a popular Pakistani drama serial that focused on women’s empowerment and female doctors pursuing their careers in life. However, the drama ended on a happy note, with a lady doctor saving her home by forgiving her husband despite spotting major red flags. The ending divided both fans and critics. The drama was written by Sanam Mehdi Zaryab and directed by Mehreen Jabbar.
Recently, Nadia Khan, who is a renowned Kya Drama Hai judge, shared her opinion on Dr Bahu’s ending. She expressed her disappointment with the makers for sabotaging the drama’s original concept through a typical happy ending.
Nadia Khan said, “It looked like the ‘Bahu’ title won in the drama, and her career as a doctor was over. We didn’t get any conclusion to the character Sania. What happened to her? Did she complete her studies or residency? Did she pursue her career or not? What message has it given to girls becoming doctors? It was a message that everything is over after marriage for girls. It happens like that in real life, but if the drama gives the same message, it’s wrong. The message should have been that despite everything, she should have become a doctor. Not telling us whether Sania was pursuing her career as a doctor was a negative point. They didn’t even give a proper ending to Minna. Did they show that she went into depression and regretted her failed marriage? She should have been shown as a woman who had happily moved on. Like Faizan was shown happy, which was a good thing, because it’s okay for two people who are not getting what they desire from a relationship to move on. There should have been more to it. I expected better from this writer, this team. The crux was missing, but otherwise, it was a great project. Thank you to the entire team for giving us a good project as we didn’t like reviewing any project after seeing Dr Bahu.”
